So, still waiting on the season. But it's gonna be big! Like, Jumbo Slurpee big! There'll be a parade and dancing bears and balloons and ice cream and lots of your money.
But in the meantime, I think I can safely tell you about one thing coming up this season. Last year, the MN Fringe Festival took the Godfather, chopped it up into 5 equal parts and gave it to 5 different theater companies to do, and thus "Five-Fifths of the Fringe" came to be. This year, they're doing Wizard of Oz, and No Refunds gets a piece.
Dude, I've been waiting all my petty, whiskey-sodden, lice-prone, life to sink my teeth into Wizard of Oz. I can taste it now.
A man made of Metal?
A little guy with no bones?
A witch shootin fireballs?
Freakin Flying Monkeys!!??
We can't afford not to Kung Fu this Behemoth! It's like we're the Japanese Whaler to it's elephantine, pudding-filled sow of a Theatrical Gargantuan.
And you get to watch us sink it in a big old sea of Kung Fu.
Monday, April 16th. We don't know the time, we don't know the location. But rest assured, it will be glorious.
